I would like to create a registration page with forms. I would like to have 
a
confirmation email sent automatically with username and password in the
confirmation email, that also has a link back to the website. The user would
need a valid email address to receive the confirmation email before they
would have access to a file on my website. So, I would like to have three
parts working together:
1.	Registration form
2.	Email confirmation
3.	Protected file

Can I do this all in FrontPage?
Can FrontPage use a mysequal database on a Linux server?
Thanks for you help in advance.

No and no. FP uses ASP only to create dynamic content. Although there are
companies that offer products that will enable ASP on different platforms,
FP is not designed to work with the non-MS implementations. You would have
to craft a custom solution using something like PHP, which is widely
available on UNIX/Linux/Windows platforms. There may also be some ready-made
PHP scripts out there to do what you would like already.

Hope this helps,
